Creative Equals, an organization aiming to support talented women and promote diversity in creative industries, has decided to replace iconic brand logos with female figures in order to highlight the issues of unbalanced branding in the media.

Their logos include companies like Pringles, Monopoly, DreamWorks, Schwarzkopf, and Bic. Creative Equals hope that this will bring out the issues of gender inequality because according to the organization’s founder and CEO Ali Hanan, 89.5 percent of design directors are male and it can affect a brand’s identity.

In an interview with Dezeen, Ali Hanan stated that they are not attacking any of these brands personally, but they wanted to show a variety of examples to get people celebrating International Women’s Day and thinking about the need for more women.

This is not the only creative idea for International Women’s Day this year, we were already surprised by Barbie’s collection of 17 new dolls that portray inspiring women from all around the world. Also, check out how these cosplayers portrayed Disney princesses pursuing their dream professions in this inspiring photo shoot!

This is not feminism. This IS extremely odd to me and I believe in feminism which is simply the idea that men and women should be equal (but yes...different). I do NOT think this is ok or normal. I do however, think it's really sweet when someone opens a door for me (and I do the same for anyone), I HATE the term "mansplaining", I believe you deserve higher pay if you're doing more work or a more demanding job (IF you are...). REAL feminism is about being fair. That's it. it's about not treating me as less than because you think I'm the weaker sex. I'm different than a man. I'm physically weaker than most men so if I work in a job that is physical I am not in an equal position. I know what's what. I am a feminist. Please do not think feminists are what Rush Limbaugh calls Feminazis. There are all different types of people in this world.

Yeah, it's a lot like vegans. Being real vegan, serious about this kind of stuff is great and healthy as far as researchers are concerned(although, it's not very natural if you ask me, to be fair. Prehistoric people ate whatever they found and collected out there and this included stuff other than plant only diet). However, people who strut around, bragging about being vegan(while secretly eating stuff vegans shouldn't eat) are maddening.

Except for that Lincoln is a real person, and maybe Jesus too, these are logos, can be changed however they want, and really many of them doesn´t even differ more then the hair, how is this feminism at all? It´s logos getting a little bit of extra hair.

Calm down, they are not actually changing their logos. It's just a fun way of celebrating international women's day. Everything has gone back to the original for those whose world shatters when the slightest thing changes.

This is starting to really get to me. Um...do the mental midgets that do these types of things realize that logos and this type of thing don't really have much of anything to do with "empowering" anybody? I mean I get that there might be a good intention but W TV instead of MTV? Isn't that just wusic tv? Or WcDonalds? Changing an M to a W doesn't mean anything. I'm a SMART feminist (NOT a bad word) and I'm also a liberal person who doesn't hate Republicans. I respect everyone and their beliefs. These little trite moves are just dumb and placate....who? Don't give me anything I don't earn. Don't patronize me. Just treat me fairly and we'll be good. The rest of this is for those who aren't intelligent.

Exactly my thoughts! What's the point of changing logos ? It's useless... I hope they stop doing this shit and actually try to stop sexism. These people just want to bring gender into every damn thing !

What does that even mean - MRA drone? I'm assuming you mean men's rights advocate. If that's what you mean then sure, OK. I'll go for that. I'm a men's rights advocate. I'm a women's rights advocate too. I'm not really especially trying to be "for" one and against the other because we should all be in this life together working for the greater good so if that's what you mean then yeah...yeah I am...I mean the "drone" part? Uh, no but whatever. Call me what you like. I don't really care. Some people like to be pissy and sounds like that gets to be you so knock yourself out.

That's the ridiculousness of many of these. Just because Schwarzkopf, Dreamworks and Bic don't have long hair, then they must be men/boys?. What is that saying about the artists idea of what a woman should be?
